The only two Walmart test stores in the country are in Lake Nona at 11930 Narcoossee Rd (MAP) and Tomball, Texas. These two stores were fully reimagined from a new layout to building and environmental enhancements to added technology.
One new service found at these test stores is Scan & Go. It works both on personal smartphones and Walmart-provided handheld devices. Customers are greeted on their way into the store by a large bank of Scan & Go wands. Guests scan their items as they load them into their cart. The Scan & Go fast pass checkout lanes allow customers to bypass the traditional checkout process.
Below The Daily City walks through each step of the Scan & Go service. We recommend a visit to the actual store to test it out for fun and see what will be coming to your area Walmart in the future.
